2 Cor. 8:7 But just as you excel in everything--in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us--see that you also excel in this grace of giving.

HOW GIVING BENEFITS MY OWN LIFE

Giving Makes me Christ-like James 1:5 "God gives to all generously and ungrudgingly." rsv

Giving Makes me Christ-like 1 Chron. 29:14 "But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.

2. Giving Draws me Closer to God Matthew 6:19-21 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

3. Giving Breaks the Grip of Materialism Matt. 6:24 "You cannot serve both God and money."

3. Giving Breaks the Grip of Materialism 1 Tim. 6:17-19 "Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them... to be generous and willing to share. In this way... they may take hold of the life that is truly Life."

4. Giving Strengthens my Faith 2 Cor. 9:13 "Your giving proves the reality of your faith..." ph

4. Giving Strengthens my Faith Malachi 3:10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this," says the Lord Almighty, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it. (Mal 3:8-10)

4. Giving Strengthens my Faith 2 Cor. 9:7-8 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

5. Giving is a Test of my Maturity Luke 16:11 "If you are untrustworthy with worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven?" nlt

6. Giving is an Investment for Eternity 1 Tim. 6:18-19 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

7. Giving Blesses me in Return Proverbs 3:9-10 Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.

7. Giving Blesses me in Return Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."

7. Giving Blesses me in Return Deut. 15:10 "Give generously ... and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to."

8. Giving Makes me Happy 2 Cor. 9:6-7 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

8. Giving Makes me Happy Acts 20:35b “...Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'”

Giving by Faith

REMEMBERING THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS

2 Cor. 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.

Romans 12:1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-- this is your spiritual act of worship.
